W. A. Ketcham. former attorneygeneral, speaking at a New rally in Indianapolis Saturday, declared that if Watson were elected, the Republican party's chances w ould be weaken ed. Mr. Ketcham declared that it is too important to the country's welfare that the Republican party be restored to power for Republicans to take the chance of defeat by nominating men about whose election there would be considerable doubt. He pointed out

that Mr. Watson, as a candidate fori Governor, was defeated in 1908 when

Mr. Taft, as a candidate for President carried the state, and he said that it was because he had lost his popularity in his district that he ceased to be a candidate for Congress and sought the gubernatorial nomination. "We may carry the state with Watson and the "Old Gaurd," but we may not," said Mr. Ketcham. "We certainly will win if we take this New departure. Shall we?" "Mr. Watson was elected to Congress in 1894 from the Fourth District." said Mr. Ketcham. reviewing Mr. Watson's political history. "Rea

lizing that he could never again cany this district Mr. Watson, in 1895, had his county taken out. of it and put into the Sixth District when in 1896 he contended with Henry IJ. Johnson for the nomination but failed. He, however, captured the nomination in 1898 and held the district continuously until 1906 with diminishing majorities. Johnson had carried the Sixth .district in 1S94 by 12,000. "In 190G Watson carried his district

by a plurality of 1.504, while at " the

same time Fred A. Sims, as a candidate for secretary of state, carried the counties in the district by a plurality which was 2,000 votes in excess of the Watson vote. "Mr. Watson and his district recognized that his usefulness in' the district had been destroyed and he was billeted on the state as a candidate for Governor. "Watson managed to accumulate a defeat when all the rest of the state ticket was elected, running behind Taft some 25,000 votes."

County commissioners, after hearing five hours of testimony in the Peacock-Mueller bridge fight, Saturday, decided to continue the hearing next Saturday morning at 10 o'clock after it had been found impossible to hold a session earlier this week. All of the commissioners were anxious to continue the. hearing as soon as possible so that some decision can be reached on the appointment of a bridge engineer for the south side bridge, but the lawyers in the case were unable to decide upon a suitable date this week until next Saturday. The South Side Improvement association was represented at the hearing by Hans Koll, J. Henry E. Bode pud John Niewoehner, who said that they intend to show the commissioners that the South Side Improvement association is more interested in the outcome of the litigation than any othei interest in the county and that they will ask the commissioners to order the plans and specifications for the south side bridge as soori as possible.

Mrs. W. O. Lewis gave a most interesting talk to the members of the Franchise League in the Morn'ssonReeves Library Friday afternoon. She related her experiences as a campaign worker for suffrage, in North Dakota. In Ihe fall of 1914, she started from her home on a four days trip stump speaking, but before she returned, she had been at her work for five strenuous weeks. Never had she worked harder nor found work more fascinating. Every day and often twice a day she and her co-workers spoke in towns and in the country,. They found much opposition in tha

activity of the "Antis" and at one' time were threatened with arrest. North Dakota, as well as nearly alt j

the western states, has some form of suffrage. Mrs,. Lewis is a graduate of Indiana University and is now teaching in the public schools.
